[ipxe-devel] branding patch

[David Yeske]

I recently wanted to build a custom version of the ipxe firmware by
creating the following file.

% cat src/config/local/uefi/branding.h
#undef PRODUCT_TAG_LINE
#define PRODUCT_TAG_LINE "uefi Network Firmware"

When I compiled and ran ipxe, it did not appear to pick up the change.  I
looked through the source code and I think the branding code is missing
some information.  I have created a patch as follows which is working for
me.

I hope a shar is acceptable in an email body.  If not is there an official
way to submit a patch?
